Disease Control Rate (DCR) is the number of participants with a Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), and Stable Disease (SD) divided by the total number of randomized participants per arm, then multiplied by 100. Response is based on the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.0) criteria. Complete Response (CR) was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions. Partial Response (PR) was defined as at least a 30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions compared with baseline or the complete disappearance of target lesions, with persistence of 1 or more nontarget lesion(s) and no new lesions. Progressive Disease (PD) was defined as at least 20% increase in sum of longest diameter of target lesions compared with the smallest sum of the longest diameter recorded since the start of treatment or the appearance of 1 or more new lesion(s). Stable Disease (SD) was defined as small changes that did not meet above criteria.
Baseline to measured progressive disease (up to 37.06 months)
Progression Free Survival Time
Time Frame: Baseline to measured progressive disease or date of death from any cause (up to 33.54 months)

Change From Baseline in Participant Reported Outcomes as Assessed by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - General (FACT-G)
Time Frame: Baseline, up to first 10 cycles (4 induction and 6 maintenance cycles, cycle=21 days)
The FACT-G is a validated instrument used to measure quality of life (QOL) in participants with cancer consisting of the 27-item questionnaire and is organized into subscales, each designed to assess a QOL domain: physical well-being (PWB)-7 items; social/family well-being (SWB)-7 items; emotional well-being (EWB)-6 items; functional well-being (FWB)-7 items. Each item uses a 5 point rating scale (0="not at all" and 4=equals "very much"). FACT-G Total is the sum of the scores of all 4 subscales and ranges from 0 to 108. Higher scores indicate better QOL. Least squares mean (LSmean) change is calculated using the linear-mixed model (LMM) analysis controlled for treatment, baseline value, time point and treatment by time point interaction.
Baseline, up to first 10 cycles (4 induction and 6 maintenance cycles, cycle=21 days)
Change From Baseline in Participant Reported Outcomes as Assessed by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Lung (FACT-L)
Time Frame: Baseline, up to first 10 cycles (4 induction and 6 maintenance cycles, cycle=21 days)
FACT-L is a valid instrument used to measure quality of life (QOL) in participants with cancer consisting of the 27-item FACT-General (G) and 9-item lung cancer subscale (LCS). FACT-G is organized into subscales: physical well-being (PWB)-7 items; social/family well-being (SWB)-7 items; emotional well-being (EWB)-6 items; functional well-being (FWB)-7 items. Each item uses a 5 point rating scale (0="not at all" and 4=equals "very much"). FACT-L Total Score=4 subscales + LCS and ranges from 0 to 144. Trial Outcome Index-Lung (TOI-L)=PWB+FWB+LCS and ranges from 0 to 92. Higher scores indicate better QOL. Least squares mean (LSmean) change is calculated using the linear-mixed model (LMM) analysis controlled for treatment, baseline value, time point and treatment by time point interaction.
Baseline, up to first 10 cycles (4 induction and 6 maintenance cycles, cycle=21 days)
Change From Baseline in Participant Reported Outcomes as Assessed by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group- Neurotoxicity (FACT/GOG-Ntx)
Time Frame: Baseline, up to first 10 cycles (4 induction and 6 maintenance cycles, cycle=21 days)
FACT/GOG-Ntx is a validated instrument used to measure quality of life (QOL) in participants with cancer and neurotoxicity (Ntx) consisting of 27-item FACT-General (G) and 11-item Ntx subscale. FACT-G is organized into domain subscales: physical well-being (PWB)-7 items; social/family well-being (SWB)-7 items; emotional well-being (EWB)-6 items; functional well-being (FWB)-7 items; each uses a 5 point rating scale (0="not at all" and 4=equals "very much"). FACT/GOG-Ntx Total Score=sum 5 subscales and ranges from 0-152. Ntx Trial Outcome Index (TOI-Ntx)=PWB+FWB+NTX and range from 0-100. For all FACT scales, higher scores indicate better QOL. Least squares mean (LSmean) change is calculated using the linear-mixed model (LMM) analysis controlled for treatment, baseline value, time point and treatment by time point interaction.
